Chapter 170
Chapter 170
The concert was improvised and held in a hurry.
But with the millions of pounds thrown at us, many things became easier.
The staff worked overtime, and everything was moving forward in an orderly and fast manner.
Out of emphasis, Lance also frequently went to check the construction of the stage scene.As always, he oversaw all the preparations and checked everything from lighting, monitors, sound reinforcement systems, and more.
As time progresses, as if in the blink of an eye, everything is ready and ready to go!
Maybe there are still some details that are not in place, but once the date of the performance is set, it is like diving down on a sled. There is no way to stop on the steep slope, and there is no way to change the direction temporarily. We can only hope Yu can be lucky enough to land safely, and at the same time, soldiers come to cover the water and soil.
The performance is at night, but due to the large number of people, tickets are checked in advance.
A reporter captured the moment when tens of thousands of spectators lined up to enter the arena, and used the word 'massive force' to describe it.
The chaotic sound filled the entire venue, and countless people streamed in.
People entered the arena in groups, looking excitedly at the huge stage, and the atmosphere was optimistic and high-spirited. Even if the performance had not yet started, they could feel the enthusiasm of enthusiastic anticipation from the bursts of cheers they burst out from time to time. Affection.
But at this time, where is the Planetary Band?
in the sky.
A group of planets hovered in circles in the sky in a helicopter.
Looking at the crowded scene below, they were speechless for a while.
Before the performance started, the audience had already started to seething.
They kept shouting down below: "Planet! Planet!"
James couldn't help looking at this scene, dazed in a daze.
At this moment, all the troubles and endless quarrels in life were paused, and there were only the dark figures of the fans who had traveled thousands of miles before their eyes, and their shouts of excitement and anticipation filled their ears.
A deep-rooted emotion that has faded away due to exhausting work and busy life is reawakening.
That is the most primitive impulse to try my best every time I debut on the stage, just to get a compliment from the audience.
——Sales, leaderboards, peer competition, teammate quarrels...
——At first... At first, I just wanted to sing for people to hear.
When people are successful, the speed at which they forget their original intentions is incredible.
But it's not too late to wake up now.
James gently closed his eyes, quietly feeling the enthusiasm of hundreds of thousands of fans.
He thought: "I must sing well this time."
Lance, who was always nervous before going on stage, looked at the crowd of people below, and once again quietly held the hand of his lead singer.
James didn't refuse this time, he shook his hand back and whispered, "Let's have a great show, Lance."
"Let's have a great show!"
When James said it for the second time, a bottle of champagne was opened early on the helicopter.
Everyone raised their glasses and drank it down.
"We must sing well this time!" James thought again.
When the night fell and the venue was dark, the crackling drums exploded like incendiary bombs.
The audience who had been waiting for a long time vented their pent-up expectations, desires and fanatical impulses along with the drumbeat. In an instant, applause and cheers resounded through the sky.
The lights on the stage brightened instantly.
The furious sound of the electric guitar pierced the night sky like a sharp sword. The black-haired guitarist in a black and white suit was as cold as ever, with a cigarette in his mouth expressionlessly, standing in the center of the stage with his guitar tightly hugged. Tall, thin, and fragile, but every plucked string can bring a roar.
"She's 16 years old! Ten-six-years-old!" The blonde lead singer came out from behind, singing.
The lights in the whole venue were dimmed, and only a beam of light came out, illuminating his face, and the audience who were far away from the stage could clearly see him hugging the shoulder of the guitarist on the big screen , sang a classic song that everyone has been familiar with with a voice that is amazing no matter how many times you listen to it.
Hundreds of thousands of spectators sang in unison off the stage, almost word for word.
The huge crowd stretched far, far away, with no end in sight, because it was a seatless concert, everyone stood, and some held banners, they danced to the music, and some girls even rode On the boyfriend's shoulder, waving his arms, shaking his body...
In such a frenzied atmosphere, no matter who it is, they just want to keep going, and never stop.
The Planetary Band sang for three full hours, singing one after another, from [She is 16 years old this year], [Break up with him], [African Bison] to [CrazyNeverDie], and then sang [Witch], [ Not Home for Christmas], [Pirate Captain], then [God’s Spell], then [Baby, let’s see Peter Rabbit], [Why Shut Me Out of Heaven], [We Are in Love], [Cherry Tree] ...
In the past, band tours were often used to promote new albums and sell records.
Therefore, when performing, I always choose to sing the tracks on the records that are currently on sale. As for some old tracks that many fans occasionally want to hear, they may not be able to hear them.
But this time the concert has no such concerns. Not only can the repertoire be sung at will, but the performance time is also longer than usual.
Whether it is the band or the fans, they all sang it thoroughly and enjoyed it!
James burns out on stage and doesn't stop until he's exhausted.
He ran back and forth on the stage, with sweat dripping from his forehead. Because it was too hot, he took off his clothes after singing a few songs, and finally shouted out the lyrics hoarsely with his upper body naked. At that moment, it was like... Under the skin, break the sternum, open the chest cavity, and show the heart.
At the same time, another person who is the twin star of the band cannot be ignored.
The black-haired guitarist is inherently extravagant, especially likes to wear neat suits. His performance style seems restrained at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that contradictions are his true style, seemingly elegant tall and thin body, but swaying madly like a clothes hanger, with a cold expression, but the guitar rests on the crotch, with the headstock up, full of a certain aggressiveness, and the slender fingers quickly pluck the strings, strings The wild notes just flew into the air, making the air burn with it.
When these two people stand on the stage, the enjoyment brought to the audience is by no means as simple as one plus one equals two.
But several times the pleasure.
The fiery eyes they looked at each other, the figures of them sticking close together, the blending of their breaths when they sang and shared the same mic...
Some fans privately commented: "Abandon the body, use music as the medium, a carnival of lust."
But the blonde frontman didn't do it on purpose.
He just accidentally brought up too many, too many memories of these familiar songs when he sang one after another.
Whether it's the [witch] who said 'sweetness flows through my heart, trembling from head to toe', or [Christmas does not come home] who said 'on the battlefield, I can't turn my head back', or 'Under the same tree' , the [cherry tree] that once bloomed'...
These are all the most precious memories of the planetary band step by step.
Therefore, James does not need to deliberately mobilize any emotions, those strong feelings will naturally pour out with the music, which is unstoppable.
Lance seemed to feel something too.
While he was playing the guitar, he also stared at the blonde lead singer, his eyes never deviated for a moment.
The fans in the audience cried, screamed, applauded, and cheered frantically.
They waved their arms back and forth vigorously for their beloved band, looking down from above, as if they were controlled by a god called music, rising and falling like tides.
At this point, no one knew that this was Lance's last gig to leave the band.
But no matter how long the journey is, it will eventually come to an end.
There is no never-ending feast.
When the show finally drew to a close, there was a brief pause in the music on stage.
The blond lead singer stood silently in the center, his sweat-soaked blond hair hanging down his cheeks, his usual smile disappeared, and he couldn't see the sharp canine teeth, nor the bright light in those green eyes , he held the microphone with one hand, his fingers turned white due to excessive force, and then read out the title of the last song: "You're my fixed star (You are my star)."
Lance looked over again.
Then, without saying a word, he gently plucked the strings and played the prelude quietly.
James closed his eyes and sang quietly: "You light up in the distance, light up... you swayed and turned your body, like a drunk little girl, gliding out of light dance steps."
——When I was seven years old, I was sitting in a boring classroom, staring out the window in a daze, and you were fighting in the small playground downstairs;
"Do you know I'm watching you from afar, baby?"
——When I was 14 years old, you were called by the teacher to stand in the corridor, and I quietly stood behind you to strike up a conversation;
"Do you know that I love you? A lover who is drunk and slides out of the dancing steps."
——When I wanted to form a band, you ran to recommend yourself as the lead singer;
"Do you know that I love you? Do you know that I revolve around you?"
——When I was 19 years old, we stood on the stage together, got scolded, smashed, spat on and booed together, wandered together and toured together, signed a contract together and made a lot of money together, wrote songs together and fought together, went to prison together and fought against the world together world……
"You are my only love, the one who lives in the stars!"
- I'm 26 years old and decided to quit the band.
"We can go to the depths of the distant starry sky together... wandering in the depths of the starry sky."
When James sang this line, he could hardly sing anymore.
Lance could clearly see the tears in his eyes from the side.
James also noticed this. How could he not feel sad when he watched things go wrong?
But the truth is this, while he continued to sing "You are my star, and I am the planet that revolves around you day and night", he still chose to close his eyes, not wanting anyone to discover the weakness of this moment, but there is still a drop Tears became caught fish, slipping quietly down the corner of the eyes...
At that moment, Lance suddenly regretted 'exiting'.
After all, no matter how many external difficulties, the planet is his band; no matter how many internal contradictions, Jimmy is his lover.
The black-haired guitarist pursed his lips tightly.
His mind was in a mess, thinking, should we just let it go?Do you want to find another way?
But before he could figure it out, the voice of his lead singer and lover suddenly sounded in his ears: "This is the last time I will sing You're my fixed star (You are my star)! Because, Lance fucking Winfield is leaving the planet !Fuck the planets, fuck the stars, all liars! Liars!"
The blond frontman threw the microphone to the ground angrily.
He suddenly turned around and rushed over, violently grabbed the guitarist's black hair from behind, pulled him staggeringly, but stood on tiptoe, and kissed him heavily on the lips...
The hundreds of thousands of spectators below the stage were stunned.
The audience was silent for about two or three seconds, and then there was a huge uproar, whistling, screaming, crying two people's names, everything.
On the other side, Lance was completely bewildered by this set of 'combined punches'.
And the blond lead singer of the 'Exit' group let go of his hand at this time.
He bent down to pick up the microphone, and said in a desolate tone: "Farewell kiss, you can get out!"
